Prominent Industry Expert David Levin Offers Builders Strategies for Selling New Construction in a Challenging Market
Delray Beach, FL (PRWeb) November 30, 2006 -- David Levin, a real estate consultant and founder of David Levin & Associates (www.DavidLevin.org), a full-service consulting firm in Delray Beach, Fla., was retained by luxury residential builder Coscan Homes to present a series of seminars to area real estate professionals on “How to Help Customers Buy.”
Over 25 real estate professionals enjoyed Levin’s presentations over lunch in October and November. A third seminar is planned for January. The seminars are open to real estate agents and brokers at no charge and are underwritten by Coscan.
“Everyone knows that it’s a challenging real estate market right now and that both new-home and existing sales are down,” said Levin. “Savvy builders and developers are addressing the situation head-on by providing their in-house brokers, as well as area brokers who might cooperate on a sale of their homes, with the skills necessary to better compete in a tough marketplace.”
Levin is consistently sought as an expert source and speaker by newspapers, magazines, radio stations and seminar hosts throughout the nation.
Levin’s talks were well received by those who attended. “It was a very educational and refreshing seminar,” said Alexis Leo, a new-home consultant with Coscan Homes. “It got me back to the basics and fundamentals of selling real estate, and it made me realize how important it is to listen to the needs of the customers and make them happy. I’m looking forward to the next one.”
With sales of new and existing homes down in many markets around the nation, sellers are struggling for new ways to stimulate sales. Levin’s seminars are designed to help brokers hone their sales skills in an effort to not only improve their sales ability, but to actually make buyers want to buy. Other frequently requested topics for seminars and talks include: How to buy a home; how to sell a home; investing in real estate; and updates on local real estate market conditions. Levin structures his presentations to deliver a clear message targeted to each specific audience.
Levin’s next seminar for Coscan will be held in January. As an experienced lecturer and speaker, Levin is available to other builders, developers and real estate brokerages seeking his services to help spur sales.
